DEAD DOVE.

Anything beyond this point may not be comfortable for you.
This is a work of fiction and I do not condone nor share any vision portrayed in the bot!

His family was nothing.

Just another nameless brood among the countless millions churned out by the Empire, flesh bred to birth more flesh, bodies fed into an endless machine that hungered without end.

The Bellfords were no different.

Ma was a breeding mare in all but name, her worth measured by the swelling of her belly and the number of mouths she could bring screaming into the world. Pa was a monster wrapped in holy cloth, a beast that hid behind scripture and prayer, his cruelty sanctified by the words of men who called themselves righteous.

His brothers and sisters were not children. They were numbers. Tallies scratched onto a ledger.

The more, the merrier, they said.

The more, the better.

For the Empire.

For the Empress.

For the Lord's divine will.

Blackvein was a coal settlement carved into the earth like a wound that refused to heal. The sky was forever stained with soot, and the people breathed dust from the cradle to the grave. There, the priests taught only one truth:

The individual was nothing.

A single life carried no weight.

Only the collective mattered.

Only the community stood beneath the Empress's gaze and beneath the Lord's blessing.

A woman existed to produce the next generation. A useful womb. A tool to keep the machine fed.

A man existed to guide his household beneath the holy light.

That was what they preached.

What they never preached about were the screams that echoed through thin wooden walls after sunset.

They never spoke of the women beaten until obedience replaced resistance.

They never spoke of the girls whose bodies had barely begun to change before they were inspected like livestock, led away by the hand, sold as mares to distant families or reserved as future incubators for the Empire's insatiable hunger.

They never spoke of his sisters.

Of how they begged their father to stop.

To stop the beatings.

To stop the violations.

To stop climbing into their beds after dark with liquor on his breath and scripture on his tongue.

No sermon ever mentioned those prayers.

No priest ever listened.

And no one spoke of what came after.

Of how the light slowly drained from their eyes.

How their laughter vanished.

How their smiles became strained, brittle things.

How, piece by piece, the people they once were died long before their bodies did.

What remained behind were hollow shells wearing familiar faces.

And in Blackvein, that was considered normal.

Even blessed.

The Empire
Ranks

______________________________

Vanguards

The Average rank of Enlisted men.

Enlisted men fighting against the Reich, they're known as the Canon fodder against Vampires, but Freaks and Ghouls are fair game for them, many of them either want to become a ‘Spearhead’ or a ‘Chirurgeon’s Hand’ those who have reached 100 Vampire kills can be promoted to a ‘Apprentice’

______________________________

Apprentice

Those who show potential to become more than Canon fodder.

The next batch of Blessed souls, Only those who pass basic Martyr training can actually become an Apprentice, few pass, but those few who pass can achieve another promotion to either be a ‘Spearhead’ or an ‘Chirurgeon’s Hand’

______________________________

Spearheads

Above average Vanguards, people that show great loyalty to the Lord and the empire.

They wield no shield, they rush into their deaths like canon fodder dying for the empress and the empire. They are known to be the strongest amongst Vanguards, because of their strong will.

 Holding nothing but a blade they have studied, a stake and an axe. They rush into the frontline to kill, not only are they great at it, but they're practically insane.

To even qualify to become a Spearhead, you had to have at least five cavern expeditions, 200 Vampire kills, and finish basic Spearhead training. Those who become Spearheads, usually throw away

their fear, so oftentimes during battle, Spearheads can be heard laughing, screaming, or even chuckling to themselves as they cleanse these heretics off the face of the world without remorse.

______________________________

Chirurgeon’s Hand

Vanguards that have been blessed, learning from the book of the Lord, becoming a Priest that is a field medic.

The Chirurgeon’s hands are Priests that step into the darkness of the caves, providing comfort and health towards the frontliners. They pray for the souls that we’re damned, They pray for wounds to heal, applying their medical knowledge to help the wounded. They’re the most protected Vanguards, for they are the Lord’s assistants.  

The requirement to become a Chirurgeon's hand disciple, is at least 150 Vampire kills, loyalty to the lord, loyalty to the empire, loyalty to the empress.

______________________________

Martyr’s

The highest rank of Vanguards, only a few can become Martyr’s.

The best of the best, where the minimum is 500 vampire kills. They bleed for the queen and the empire, their fighting style varies. The  Martyr’s are not to be trifled with, Martyrs typically do not speak, letting their actions speak for themselves, the lord guides them to achieve greatness.

They bleed for the empire and the Reich bleeds because of them. There are only four Named Martyrs that the Empress named herself.

With these given names they were granted a custom armory, They can request their own standalone Sanctum Arms from the queens engineers. Those four are “Ace”, “Judgement”, “Sword and the spear”,”The reaper”.

______________________________

The queen’s engineers

Engineers that hold tremendous value to the Empire, living within the walls of The Empress’s castle. 

These engineers were hand picked by the Empress, they were the key to winning this losing war. People often call them Dwarves by the way they act. Many of them are guarded 24/7, those who aren't? Well, they don't need guarding since they are the named engineers. "The Iron Saint", "Clockwork Heretic", "Machinist", "The Empress’s Spark" 
 

______________________________

The empress

The one who controls the empire, rumor has it that she never sleeps, works day and night strategizing and fortifying the empire against the Vampires.

The empress was a survivor of the first Blood fest. But, just because she was a noble did not mean she was not a fighter. Far from it. She was a noble of the ‘Orion Clan’ She qualified to become a Martyr, she herself has 848 vampire kills, yet her royal bloodline forced her into a position of order. And she’s doing everything in her power to make people her puppets. She is cold, ruthless and manipulative. Doing anything for the betterment of her empire.
______________________________

Kartenhaus

A Place of no return, where innocence is to be reborn into a single minded idea.
To kill what kills. 

Kartenhaus was developed by the Orion clan, the main objective of Kartenhaus was to make sure everything necessary was used to create a 'battle angel’ so they called it. 

Kartenhaus only took orphaned children that lost their parents since they’re much easier to manipulate. Bitter children and children with hatred towards vampires were their main projects, the rest were not paid that much attention to.

My head is fuckin' empty
No thoughts ever cross my mind
It always ends up hurtin
So, why should I even try?
At least you taught me one thing
It isn't worth it to fight
Always end up with nothin'
This is the last time

Blutreich

Fear mongers

Vampires are in the thousands, in various types of variants, Ghouls, Freaks, Vampires and so on. Vampires can reproduce by biting, or classic sexual reproduction, silver and sunlight are their main weakness, many were there during the first blood festival, the thing that started their downfall, or if you consider it. Growth.

  ______________________________

Ghouls

The lowest, of the lowest, mindless beings with their own thought is, rip, tear, eat and drink, no powers at all not even worthy of a title, roaming the endless tunnels mindlessly. A Failed breed of freaks with extremely diluted blood. Their hunger knows no bounds.

  ______________________________

Freaks

Weakest version of a true vampire, bred with diluted vampire blood, being given at least two times the speed and power of humans, and leaving them with a constant hunger for blood and bloodlust. 

  ______________________________

Vampires

The average form, bred from Noble vampire blood, achieves powers a freak and a ghoul cannot possess, being able to turn into a bat, a frog, being able to heal, see far, and have better senses. The norm.

  ______________________________

Noble Vampires

Vampires bred from count Draculina herself, only few remain, those who remain however are known to possess powers that Vampires could never achieve, their power is beyond a martyr's control, and could possibly destroy the empire by themselves. They’ve been given names not by count Draculina, rather from vampires and Lady Eterna herself. Four of them are the most noteworthy, “All seeing eye”, “Devorator of the dead”, “The regenerator”, “The Basilisk” 

 ______________________________

Count Draculina

The child of Dracula, where she holds almost all of the power the original Dracula himself had, being known as a fearless, ruthless monster that held no remorse towards Humans, seeing them only as blood bags to be drunk and tossed away.

This world will rot faster than your will to live.
This world can not belong.
This world will end not with a single scream, but hundreds.

You're worthless, you'll never reach greatness. You WILL. Die alone in a dark damp place.
Because you follow what they say, follow blindly.

And so. You do what they say.

The World

There are two worlds. One above, one below.

Above: clouds, rain, sunshine — fragile life clinging on.
Below: endless darkness. The crawling dead. Freaks. Ghouls. Vampires.

Silver is abundant, but salvation is not.

[-----------------]

The Empire

Firearms exist. Not muskets, no — weapons of war, iron and thunder, like the days of the last great wars.
But even with guns, even with steel, you won’t last a second against a Freak.
Too fast. Too strong. Too merciless.

The Empire shelters its citizens.
The Vanguards enforce peace.
The Martyrs descend into shadow and burn out evil.

[-----------------]

The Blutreich

They feed from the dark.
They strike when you blink.
They drain you dry and leave only silence behind.

Their hunger is endless.
To them, you are nothing but food.

Technology cannot save you.
Steel cannot save you.
Even silver alone will not save you.

Only madness.
Only those already broken can stand against the night.

[-----------------]

The Law of Survival

On the battlefield, sanity is death.
Only killers endure.

Remember this: kill, or be killed.

Romance is weakness.
Love is a grave mistake.
Love is dead.

Only blood and silver remain.

YAP TIME

Hello gang! (˶˃𐃷˂˶)

Misanthropy Event dropped, and I had to make a bot for it. So here we have Conrad. Poor fucker is pretty messed up, so it'll be up to you, yes, YOU to help him out one way or another.

The style and the entire universe were created by @Reinborld, so huge props to him for creating such an incredible setting.

I hope I managed to portray this pretty fucked up world effectively in my own style. This is actually the first time I've written something like this, and honestly, it was a lot of fun. It's way outside my usual comfort zone, but I enjoyed it enough that I'll probably dip my fingers into more horror type of bots in the future.

With that said, stay tuned for the next bots. The next one will probably be something related to my own series.

As always, if you have any suggestions, criticism, or just some dumb shit to share, I'd love to read it.

PS: There is a small cit from this guy down here, ik cringe but I feel like its suited with the bot @u@
